Rick wrote:Thanks, Gene, that was more than thorough, and I'm now feeling guilty for asking and putting you through so much trouble. Hadn't seen any brown in a non-spray on their site but an apparently gloss leather brown in the "professional" section.

Sorry,...I just couldn't resist.
I'm pretty sure "sand" is a color.

There' no actual "sand" in the flocking...just paint and fibers.
Search in this forum and you'll find pictures of the wigeon. I can also repost pictures for you.

The wigeon look excellent. So when you're flocking do you use different color flocking and spray it on with an airbrush?

Sometimes I use different colors of flocking, but both the drake and hen wigeons were flocked all gray and then airbrushed. To apply the flocking you just goop on Rustoleum paint and then sift the flocking on. You let it dry and do it again.
